Porridge toppings

allIcouldwishfor

I like grated apple and sultana or raisin and cinnamon.

DS (5) likes honey on his just like the three bears!

Thanks everyone for the fab ideas, I shall definitely try some of these.

Hi all

I make my porridge with water only - don't like it made with milk

I usually mix some almonds in while it's cooking and then add honey afterwards.

Just off to make some now:D

i'm hoping to start having porridge everyday for breakfast :T

to ensure that oh and i don't get bored - i want to find as many different things as i can, to add to it

i would love for everyone to share their favourites with me - probably lots of things i haven't even thought of

thanks in advance

There's a big thread on porridge somewhere - I'm sure someone who knows how will be along in a minute to point you in the right direction.

I love putting apple chunks, cinnamon and brown sugar with a bit of butter in a pan, cooking until softened and then adding my porridge oats and milk. Also non-cook porridge is yum - add cinnamon to milk, along with a blob of condensed milk for sweetness, pour it over porridge with added fruit and leave overnight. In the morning it's lovely and creamy.

Honey, jam golden syrup, lemon curd, marmalade
Raisins
Apple sauce, cranberry sauce
Ice cream sauce
Chocolate chips
Nutella/choc spread
Chopped nuts
Dried fruit e.g. apricots, pineapple

Also try making the porridge with condensed milk

Hope that's a good start

I add chopped appple or pear, or perhaps a sliced banana

Then some natural yogurt stirred in, makes it creamy

Sprinkle of sunflower or some other seeds

or just stir some cold into a muller lite - yum yum. takes 3 seconds to make and is lovely, although if you use too posh porridge its a bit chewy (but in a good way)

If I can pick cream up reduced, I love porridge made with a bit of cream added to the milk and topped with brown sugar. Not fancy maybe, but yummy!

I love porridge topped with banana and brown sugar - that will definitely keep you full 'till lunch
